Минимализм как стиль жизни | Татьяна Апретова | TEDxNovosibirskWomen


Что вы чувствуете, глядя на просторную комнату, где из вещей только место для сна, столик, шкаф для одежды и икебана в специально отведённом месте?

Вероятнее всего, спокойствие. Так традиционно жили японцы. Так может жить каждый из нас: минимализм – это не только стиль в дизайне интерьера.

Минимализм это культура и стиль жизни.

как набраться смелости и отказаться от ненужных вещей, людей и занятий,
как сделать свою жизнь более значимой. Cовладелец digital агентства. «Минималист» с десятилетним стажем This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

The Magic of Not Giving a F*** | Sarah Knight | TEDxCoconutGrove


Внимание: нецензурная лексика.

Автор бестселлера Сара Найт в своём юмористическом выступлении «Магия пофигизма» рассказывает о «методе не-сожаления»: как прекратить тратить время на те вещи, которые вы не хотите делать.

После пятнадцати лет работы в лучших книжных издательствах Нью-Йорка Сара Найт начала работать на себя. С тех пор её книга «Сегодня я уволилась (и ты сможешь!)» стала очень популярной, а её книга «Магия пофигизма, меняющая жизнь: как перестать тратить время, которого у вас нет, делая вещи, которые вам не нравятся, с людьми, которые вам неинтересны» стала бестселлером.

После побега из корпоративной культуры её становление как «невольного анти-гуру» продолжилось, когда она с мужем переехала в Лас-Терренас в Доминиканской Республике. В своей новой книге Сара объясняет «как взять себя в руки и перестать волноваться о том, что вам следует сделать, чтобы закончить то, что нужно сделать, и начать наконец делать то, что вам нравится». Сара с отличием закончила Гарвардский университет по специальности английская и американская литература.

Это выступление записано на мероприятии TEDx, независимо организованном местным сообществом с использованием формата конференций TED. Узнайте больше на ted.com/tedx

TEDx Hadal | حبابك رحلة و حكاية - أحمد تاتاي | Ahmed Tatay | TEDxHadal


لتبدأ الرِحلة…
لتهرب من الواقِع وتقصِد السفَر فمن المؤكد أنك تبحثُ عن الراحة…

ماذا عن المرضى في الانتظار، واكمال الاجراءات…

How Hope Can Change Your Life | Amy Downs | TEDxOklahomaCity


Can a person overcome the most difficult moments of their life? Amy Downs shows how people can not only survive, but how they can thrive if they have a hopeful mindset. The pathway of hope leads to all people creating a better future. Amy Downs was one of the last survivors to be pulled from the rubble of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing in which a total of 168 people were killed including 18 of her 33 co-workers. While buried alive and waiting to die, she realized she had never really lived. She began her career as a teller 32 years ago working for Federal Employees Credit Union located in the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. At the time of the bombing, Downs was a credit card loan officer who flunked out of college and weighed more than 350 pounds. In the coming years, she’d not only lose 200 pounds, but become a triathlete—and even compete in an Ironman Triathlon. She’d not only go back to school, but she’d graduate with a Masters of Business Administration. She’d not only get promoted by Federal Employees Credit Union (who would soon change their name to Allegiance Credit Union) but she eventually became its CEO—an award winning CEO, no less.

Why you should not bring your authentic self to work | Jodi-Ann Burey | TEDxSeattle


In this 2020 TEDxSeattle talk, Jodi-Ann Burey explores the nuances of what professionals of color and other underrepresented groups face when they are told to “bring your authentic self to work.” Many who do so may face backlash when navigating company cultures designed around white privilege, exposing themselves to penalties for not conforming to the dominant culture. Burey calls for people of color and other underrepresented people to focus their energies on realizing their own imaginations for racial justice on their terms. Separately, Burey outlines steps toward achieving more equitable and just workplaces, and implores company leadership and people with privilege to accept accountability for changing their cultures.

2:49 — “Professionalism” as code for white cultural norms and standards
6:44 — How authenticity masks the need for systemic change
9:30 — Shares how gaslighting works to deny the realities of people of color at work
11:34 — Explains the work people of color have to do to mask themselves at work
12:54 — A call to action for people of color to create their own spaces for authenticity
13:19 — A call for those with power and privilege to take on the work of changing workplace culture
